It was a very busy week that involved family activities, including several days at Oceanside, CA. I did begin writing Proxima Centauri, the sequel to Rigel Kentaurus. I’m not anywhere near as far along as I had hoped to be, but I’ve had a huge uptick in workload on the… Continue reading
If you write a series, there are any number of continuity problems that may arise. The problem is, you may not start out trying to write anything more than a stand-alone novel. What do you do when you write a sequel several years after that stand-alone is released? Almost any… Continue reading
+ Proxima Centauri Status On the surface, it looks like I did nothing this week to further the progress of my next novel. True enough, but plenty of groundwork was laid in the form of gedankenexperiment. While the novel I am about to begin is the second in the Deep… Continue reading

Not much new writing this week, although I did spend quite a bit of time answering some questions at wetwebmedia.com, so that sort of counts. I’ve been debating whether to start the next novel or to give A Darkling Nine a first edit pass. There are pluses and minuses to… Continue reading
I’ve been delayed a number of times getting back to scribing A Darkling Nine. I have three short projects to finish before going back to that novel. Good thing is, when I’m in productive mode, my head begins working on the novel after the one I’m half-way through. I had… Continue reading
